A discussion on sexual harassment

[TuffCubby]

Sexual harassment. I'm not sure if this has been brought up before, but it was featured in the NY Times yesterday. It has also received a lot of attention lately in other forms of media.

Being new to the organization, I was curious on how we handle these situations? Are we truly committed to making the gaming experience in our scope inclusive to everyone?

Regardless of my role, I have no problem addressing blatant racism, misogyny, or homophobia for that matter.

I remember an incident the other day with a female gamer felling frustrated from some comments that were made about her. It is that sort of nonsense that ruffles my feathers. :thumbdown:
